Resumen
The above title‘s lyrical excerpt is taken from Trinidadian soca artist Bunji Garlin‘s 2003 song ―Dignity, in which he addresses youth who are engaging in prostitution and transactional sex. In the song, Garlin chastises those who participate in such acts, while celebrating those who abstain by maintaining their ―dignity.
